The family will greet friends with a meal from 4-7 p.m., Monday, August 3, 2020, (or in Zelda’s words stop by as long as the porch light is on) at the Izaak Walton League. Because of COVID and in the interest of public health a private family memorial service and burial will be held. The service will be shown live on the Wallace Family Funeral Home and Crematory Facebook page at 2 p.m., Monday, August 3.

Zelda, the daughter of Hugh and Mamie Lee (Hutchcraft) Bishop, was born on November 13, 1935 in Simmons, Missouri. During her elementary school years her family moved to Newton, Iowa where she would live the rest of her life. Zelda was united in marriage with Elden “PeeWee” Lundberg on June 21, 1952 in Omaha, Nebraska. Through the years Zelda had worked at the Vernon Company, as a cake decorator at area grocery stores, and later at Farm and Home; where she would retire. Zelda was always a hard worker and stressed to her family to work hard in all that they do. She enjoyed camping, quilting, and visiting with family and friends. When her grandchildren were involved she was never too far away if something wild and crazy was about to happen. Her family also loved the tradition that she started of giving everyone a $2 bill for Christmas. Zelda also had a passion for supporting and helping veteran’s organizations.

Zelda is survived by her children, Al Lundberg (Julie Bak) of Newton, Paul Lundberg of Newton, Nora (Craig)
